The Bears are bound for the playoffs, but what does that really mean for the immediate future of the franchise? Are the 8-8 Bears headed for more mediocrity in 2021 if GM Ryan Pace, head coach Matt Nagy, and even quarterback Mitchell Trubisky all return in their normal roles? Host Ryan O’Leary and Bears Wire editor Alyssa Barbieri tackle some big-picture topics, and gauge the Bears’ chances of upsetting the Saints in the wild-card round. Episode 19 of the Bears Wire podcast is powered by the USA Today Sports Media Group, with sports betting advice for the NFL playoffs from the Sportsbook Wire.
